Chapter 1324: Chapter 1323: The Betting Has Really Started!
"Great! Very great!" Though Bill, the leader, was simmering with anger inside, he didn’t show it on his face and clapped with approval instead.
"Since Mr. Ye is Lilia’s man, he must be a cultivator, right?" He then looked at Ye Feng and asked with a smile.
Though he was smiling, he was actually scheming some vicious plan to deal with Ye Feng, wanting to get rid of him.
"That’s right! Although my skills aren’t that impressive, I am indeed a cultivator." Ye Feng nodded.
Upon hearing this, Lilia initially wanted to correct Ye Feng’s words, but remembering how these people often bullied her, she kept quiet.
Indeed, if Ye Feng didn’t have impressive skills, who else in this world could be considered strong?
As for Ye Feng concealing his strength, she thought it was a good opportunity for him to teach these people a lesson.
Who told them to bully him repeatedly when he came here?
"That’s for the best. Do you know where you are?" Hearing these words, Bill nodded and then asked.
"The dueling arena!" Ye Feng replied nonchalantly.
"The dueling arena is for duels. Don’t say we’re bullying you, just pick someone for a duel. We also want to see if you’re worthy of Lilia!" Bill suggested with a smile following Ye Feng’s response.
"That’s right, Lilia is our goddess. You’ve snatched her away without a sound, so we need to test if you’re qualified."
"If you refuse this, it won’t be justifiable."
"Rest assured! We won’t go too hard on you, we won’t do anything to you."
To get Ye Feng to agree, the people behind Bill joined in persuading him, hoping to lower Ye Feng’s guard.
Once they were on stage, it would be up to them to decide what happens.
"Sure enough, these people are up to something fishy. If this Dragon Country lad dares to agree, he’s done for."
"Isn’t it? If he agrees, at the very least, he’ll end up with a broken leg, or even all his limbs broken."
"Those guys, seeing Lilia dare to find a man, how could there be anything good in store for him? Let’s see if the Zhuang Family opens a betting pool, if so, maybe we can win some cultivation points."
Seeing this scene, the onlookers started whispering.
In their eyes, if Ye Feng dared to agree, he would surely be beaten badly, at least with one leg broken.
As for Lilia, she was as calm as ever.
In fact, Lilia was secretly delighted.
She had witnessed Ye Feng’s prowess before and knew he was the War God. How could she not know how terrifying his strength was?
These people dared to provoke Ye Feng, to her, it was like an old man hanging himself, tired of living.
"Oh? You want to duel with me?" Hearing these words, Ye Feng instantly chuckled.
Ye Feng had not expected that by being humble, these fools actually believed him.
"That’s right, you’re not afraid, are you? If you’re scared, just leave Lilia and never show up in front of us again." Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Bill and his companions assumed he was afraid and looked at him with disdain.
"No... are you sure you want to duel with me? Really not going to consider it some more?" Hearing this, Ye Feng’s smile grew even wider.
"What is there to consider? Just say if you dare or not! Pick anyone in here, so you can’t say we’re bullying you." Someone irritated next to Bill provoked impatiently.
"Fine! A duel is possible, but there should be a wager, right? How about this, let’s each bet over eight hundred cultivation points, do you dare? Do you even have that many?" Hearing his words, Ye Feng nodded and then asked.
"Over eight hundred cultivation points? Are you sure?" Hearing this, Bill’s eyes lit up. He felt that not only could he teach Ye Feng a lesson today, but he could also gain over eight hundred cultivation points for free, which was a delightful double advantage.
"That’s right, if you agree, we can have the duel." Ye Feng nodded, smiling oddly.
"Is this Dragon Country kid stupid? Not only does he want to be beaten, but he also wants to lose over eight hundred cultivation points? How does he have so many cultivation points?"
"This is just stupid, actively seeking to lose so many cultivation points, never seen such an idiot."
"Maybe there’s something wrong with this guy’s cultivation points."
Hearing Ye Feng’s bet, all the onlookers were stunned.
They had never seen someone eager to lose money, especially cultivation points, which were more valuable than currency.
They couldn’t understand what Ye Feng was thinking, how could he be so foolish.
"Fine! Accept his bet, we’ll pool our cultivation points together."
"That’s right! I’ve never encountered such a good deal, this kid is like a walking money tree!"
Bill’s followers were all excited, even proposing a method of chipping in cultivation points individually.
In their view, such a great opportunity wasn’t something to be monopolized by one person.
Eventually, after they came to an agreement, they accepted Ye Feng’s terms and proceeded with the notarization.
Following the notarization, both parties’ cultivation points were given to the notary, who was arranged by Duke Mitchell and was considered trustworthy.
Moreover, once the bet was valid, a betting pool was opened in the dueling arena, concerning Ye Feng’s duel with Bill.
"Quick! The bets are open, everyone come take a look!"
"Damn! It’s really open, gotta bet a little now."
As the betting began, the crowd surged forward.
But they were shocked upon seeing the odds listed.
"What’s up with this? The odds for the mysterious person are only 1 to 1.5? Who would bet on that?"
"Exactly! Bill’s odds are actually 1 to 10? Has Duke Mitchell gone mad? Is he just giving away money?"
"Madness, this is absolute madness, with odds like these, I can make Duke Mitchell bankrupt."
Seeing these staggering odds, the crowd went crazy, furiously placing bets on Bill to win.
"Bro, hurry to the dueling arena, it’s really like picking up money this time, if you’re late, it’ll be too late."
"Where are you, little brother? Don’t say I didn’t tell you about this money-making opportunity, hurry to the dueling arena...."
Some even called friends, wanting to have them join in.
In their eyes, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to make lots of money.
And hidden in the shadows, Duke Mitchell watched this unfold, smirking contemptuously.
Being a Duke, he naturally knew Ye Feng’s true identity, and he didn’t think the War God would lose.
So he used a small trick to get these people to frantically send cultivation points his way, and he was having the time of his life....
